The position of a particle is given by ~r(t) = (3.0 t2 ˆi + 5.0 ˆj j 6.0 t kˆ) m

Julli [10]

Answer:

$v=(6ti+6k)\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

The position of a particle is given by :

$r(t) = (3.0 t^2 i + 5.0j+ 6.0 tk) m$

Let us assume we need to find its velocity.

We know that,

$v=\dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(3.0 t^2 i + 5.0j+ 6.0 tk) \\\\=(6ti+6k)\ m/s$

So, the velocity of the particle is $(6ti+6k)\ m/s$ .

A tank is filled with an ideal gas at 400 K and pressure of 1.00 atm.

bekas [8.4K]

To find the temperature it is necessary to use the expression and concepts related to the ideal gas law.

Mathematically it can be defined as

$PV=nRT$

Where

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = Number of moles

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

When the number of moles and volume is constant then the expression can be written as

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

Or in practical terms for this exercise depending on the final temperature:

$T_2 = \frac{P_2T_1}{P_1}$

Our values are given as

$T_1 = 400K\\P_1 = 1atm\\P_2 = 2atm$

Replacing

$T_2 = \frac{(2)(400)}{1}\\T_2 = 800K$

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 800K

2. If Chantal needs to travel an additional 150 meters beyond Taylor's house, but she

nirvana33 [79]

Awnser: 600 meters per hour
Step by step explication:
Covert 14 minutes to a fraction of an hour by dividing it by 60, because 60 is how many minutes in an hour and we need to convert it to a decimals. Then divide the distance, 150 meters by the fraction of an hour, .25 to abstain the velocity (speed) of 600 meters per hour.
